I have a machine with f9 clean installed and encrypted /, encrypted swap

Of course during boot you are asked for the luks passphrase for all three
partitions.
I have been able to avoid the passphrase prompt for /opt, by placing a keyfile
in /root and added this key

Whoops - I misread the log file - there was no update to xorg -
But I am still getting crashes in Excel running under wine or crossover.

After updating my F8 installation today (which includes update to
xorg-x11-server-Xorg) I am getting crashes with Excel/Excel Xp and 2003
running under both wine and crossover.
Anyone else seeing the same issues?
